Microsoft released several updates to Windows Vista Monday, the day before the new operating system debuted for consumers and landed on retail shelves. None of the updates were security fixes. The five updates for the 32-bit version of Vista - one was immediately replaced Tuesday with an update to the update - fix difficulties installing the OS on PCs with more than 3GB of memory, troubles connecting with a VPN server, and performance problems with Internet Explorer 7 and its anti-phishing feature. The largest of the five updates, however, is one that addresses incompatibility issues for a host of applications and games.

<segedunum: Just sit on XP for the next three or four years, and wait for the sixth service pack of Vista - like we all had to do with NT 4.
IIRC, the 4th SP actually made NT4 usable as a general development platform for Oracle 7x. Before that i recall difficulties connecting to our SCO UNIX based infrastructure. Just consider what we put up with then and how good we are off today...

Updates to correct things that should have been working several years ago. Microsoft do actually use this internally, right?
